Part of Series

The first book in the fantastic new series from the creator of The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod—now in paperback! Over a million readers have heard Vlad Tod's story; now it's time to hear Joss'. When Joss McMillan witnesses his sister's murder—at the hands of a vampire—his whole life changes. He learns that not only is his family part of the Slayer Society, a group whose mission is to rid the world of vampires, but he is their new recruit. As Joss trains he discovers powers that could make him the youngest, strongest Slayer in history. But there is a traitor in the Society, one whose identity would shake Joss to the core . . . if the traitor doesn't kill him first. Written from the perspective of Vlad's former friend turned mortal enemy—vampire slayer Joss McMillan—this is the first in a series of five books that can be read alongside Vlad Tod or entirely on their own.

Heather Brewer is the pseudonym of Zac Brewer…but you can call him Z. Zac is the NYT bestselling author of The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod series, as well as The Slayer Chronicles series, Soulbound, The Cemetery Boys, The Blood Between Us, and more short stories than he can recall. He grew up on a diet of Twilight Zone and books by Stephen King. He chased them down with every drop of horror he could find—in books, movie theaters, on television. The most delicious parts of his banquet, however, he found lurking in the shadowed corners of his dark imagination. When he’s not writing books, he’s skittering down your wall and lurking underneath your bed. Zac doesn’t believe in happy endings…unless they involve blood. He lives in Missouri with his husband, two children, and four furry overlords that some people refer to as “cats”.
